First they take our children, and now they are after our pets. The SEX EVERYTHING UP industry has struck again, and this time they’re marketing lingerie for dogs. Metro Paws sells what they call “Negligee T-Shirts,” which are “made from fine lingerie lace and the same stretchy nylons used in fine undergarments.” OK, true story time. Yesterday I had to take my dog Lucca to the vet because she has abscessed anal glands and they needed to be “expressed.” Anything that needs its ass drained should not be wearing “fine lingerie lace.” Ugh. (For the record, she is fine now.) [Urlesque]

That’s just all sorts of wrong. It actually makes me almost a little nauseous.
However, I think it’d work well for chinchillas and guinea pigs.

lol! but why do dogs need bathing suits either? i’ve seen those at a pet store. actually to me, these don’t look so much as lingerie as a lacy t-shirt and is pretty cute in my opinion.

this reminds me of when anna nicole smith (RIP) said she didn’t wanna feed her baby too much so she could “keep her sexy.” i don’t know why.

I think we should be more concerned when the people with the pet monkeys who are their “mon-kids” start doing this.

@Amelia
The general rule is the smaller the dog the more problems with anal glands they are going to have. Smaller dogs should be expressed at about once a month. It’s really not hard and your vet can show you how to do it. Just add it in to your doggies normal bathing time routine. Or if you get him/her groomed ask your groomer and they will do it. They can explode and it’s very painful for your furry friend.

This is so funny, this whole industry of useless things dogs don’t need. I’ve even seen a fur coat for dogs….a fur coat! Cause dogs don’t have one of those already!
